Updated Picture on Dean’s Bear
Several weeks ago I did a post on the big bear my youngest brother shot from the cabin woodpile area. I said I would post a better picture of his bear, if I found one. That’s Darryl and myself in the picture, and at the time I was just under 200 pounds (weightlifting!) so you can see the bear was a big one. He had a very large head, but we didn’t get a measurement, as Dean buried the skull. so the insects could do their work. Evidently he didn’t bury it deep enough, as some dogs found it, and that was the end of his shot at the record book.

Bummer about the skull! I hope my brother’s skull doesn’t succumb to the same fate. he buried it as well, but he has dogs, too - so hopefully he has a way to keep them from getting to it.
